I actually think at this point Dabo stays. I used to think he would jump ship but it would take almost an insurmountable amount of money, which the Alabama boosters could do, to get him to go and the expectations would be higher than at Clemson. He can already drat near get anything he wants

A lot can in the next 6 to 10 years.

Making a lame joke about the only hope of stopping your football program being an F4 tornado on the same forum that put the falling man to yakkety sax isn’t an affront to your friend or an attempt at ‘internet points.’ Jesus Christ.

Ah yes the old “it happened on this website before freshman in college were born” excuse. Don’t use human tragedy to dunk on a football team you don’t like. How is that not hard? Now I remember why I floated off to twitter

Man just say you're sorry it isn't that hard. I don't think you were being intentionally malicious but it wasn't that great a joke and it is about something that caused a lot of personal pain to people here. You don't need to dig in and defend it, just say you hosed up, apologize and move on

LISTEN TO WHAT I HAVE TO SAY AS IT'S INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT!

SourKraut posted:

I’d be shocked if Saban doesn’t coach another 10 years though. Nothing short of a serious medical issue would force him away, so non-Bama fans get to deal with probably another 5-6 Alabama championships at least.

:hfive:

I used to (pre-forced Bama fandom) tease the poo poo out of Tide fans with the whole scorpion-and-the-frog story that Saban couldn't change his essential nature and he was going to jump jobs and they'd just have to get used to it. (It actually got me banned from what at the time was my favorite BBQ place because I didn't realize I was talking to the owner.)

Then I realized that he would never leave Bama because they offer him the one thing he couldn't get at any other school, and absolutely never would get in the NFL- control on a level that would make most deities jealous. I literally cannot overstate the amount of power he has in Tuscaloosa. Anything he asks for, it happens. He could point at any building on campus and say he doesn't like it, and it would be rubble within a month. And as long as he keeps winning, most people in this state would do anything to keep him happy, on up to marching Auburn fans into the showers.

That's why it never mattered how much money Texas waved at him. Bama would match it, and then they'd apologize to him for having to match it. He has the coaching dream. Zero booster drama, five-star recruits stacked behind each other, and a program so good he literally doesn't have to cheat.

(I'm not delusional, thousand-dollar handshakes happen everywhere including Tuscaloosa, but the school is in the rare position compliance-wise of having zero incentive to cheat)

That said, watch the meltdown the first time he brings in a 9-3 season. You thought other fanbases were delusional and entitled, we would break your mind.

I always roll my eyes at the yearly talk on whether Saban will accept so and so NFL job. Like, why in the name of god would he EVER willingly give up his empire? Christ he’s more than an emperor he’s a Demi god at what he does.

Talking poo poo about a football coach/team causing you to be banned from a restaurant is the most goddamn Alabama thing ever.

Trolling someone so hard about football that they ban you from their restaurant. That's pretty amazing.
